Beskrivning
An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library.The question ‘What is Québécois literature?’ may seem innocent and answerable, yet Rosemary Chapman's compelling study shows that to answer it is to chart the cultural history of French Canada, to put francophone writing in Canada in postcolonial context and to ask whether literary history, with its focus on the nation, is in fact obsolete. This remarkable book will be compulsory reading for scholars well-versed in francophone postcolonial studies and will also act as an ideal introduction for Anglophone scholars of Canadian literature.

Recensioner i media

The author has intelligently used the results of extensive research to provide a unique insight into what has been defined as “Québécois literature” as well as other literatures of francophone Canada. This book will be appealing to specialists in Quebec literature, as well as those involved in French and francophone literary studies and, more generally, postcolonial studies.Mary Jean Green
